Family History: Emmanuel’s parents divorced when he was still very young. Then his mother took him with his brother Evarist and his sister Edina to her home place Kisesa. In 2000, his father died of Diabetes. Later in 2004 his mother died as well of TB – could possibly be HIV AIDS. Emmanuel and his two siblings had to remain to their grandparents who are very old – 70’s and are not able to look after them. His grandfather had heard of Bethany being the best place in Tanzania to look after orphaned children, so he came to Bethany along with the letter from the social village leaders to ask if Bethany could help him look after his grand children. In June 2004, Bethany admitted them. To date, Emmanuel is a happy boy, gets along well with his fellow children and he works very hard.
